Understanding how higher-order interactions affect collective behavior is a central problem in nonlinear dynamics and complex systems. Most works have focused on a single higher-order coupling function, neglecting other viable choices. Here…
Using the most general higher-derivative field redefinition for the closed spacetime manifolds, we show that the tree-level couplings of the metric, $B$-field and dilaton at orders $\alpha'^2$ and $\alpha'^3$ that have been recently found…
We analyze brane configurations corresponding to non-trivial six dimensional fixed points. Several results previously obtained from a pure field theoretical analysis are rederived in the brane language.
We discuss the origin of enhanced gauge symmetry in ALE (and K3) compactification of M theory, either defined as the strong coupling limit of the type IIa superstring, or as defined by Banks et al. In the D-brane formalism, wrapped…
M2-branes couple to a 3-form potential, which suggests that their description involves a non-abelian 2-gerbe or, equivalently, a principal 3-bundle. We show that current M2-brane models fit this expectation: they can be reformulated as…
We develop a general formalism to study the three-point correlation functions of conserved higher-spin supercurrent multiplets $J_{\alpha(r) \dot{\alpha}(r)}$ in 4D ${\cal N}=1$ superconformal theory. All the constraints imposed by ${\cal…
We review some recent results on the extension of the gauge/gravity correspondence to include matter in the fundamental representation by adding D-branes to the supergravity backgrounds. Working in the quenched approximation, in which the…
The purpose of this article is to present the theory of higher order connections on vector bundles from a viewpoint inspired by projective differential geometry.
We use an operational approach to discuss ways to measure the higher-order cross-correlations between optical and matter-wave fields. We pay particular attention to the fact that atomic fields actually consist of composite particles that…
The field equations associated to Born-Infeld type brane theories are studied by using an auxiliary variables method. This approach hinges on the fact that the expressions defining the physical and geometrical quantities describing the…
We compute six-point string amplitudes for the scattering of one closed string Ramond-Ramond state, two tachyons, and two gauge fields in the worldvolume of D-brane-anti-D-brane systems in the Type II superstring theories. From the…
We give a classification of all multiple intersections of D-branes in ten dimensions and M-branes in eleven dimensions that corresponds to threshold BPS bound states. The residual supersymmetry of these composite branes is determined. By…
We extend results of [Liu et al. Proc. Roy. Soc. Lond. A 469, 20130240, 2013] on artificial magneto-electric coupling and magnetism in moderate contrast dielectric layered media via high-order homogenization to the three-dimensional…
In this, the third paper in our series describing the excitations of the higher lattice gauge theory model for topological phases, we will examine the 3+1d case in detail. We will explicitly construct the ribbon and membrane operators which…
We introduce a differential refinement of Cohomotopy cohomology theory, defined on Penrose diagram spacetimes, whose cocycle spaces are unordered configuration spaces of points. First we prove that brane charge quantization in this…
We write down a series of basic laws for (strict) higher-order circuit diagrams. More precisely, we define higher-order circuit theories in terms of: (a) nesting, (b) temporal and spatial composition, and (c) equivalence between lower-order…
We explore the consequences of introducing higher-order interactions in a geometric complex network of Morris-Lecar neurons. We focus on the regime where travelling synchronization waves are observed out of a first-neighbours based…
The Wess-Zumino coupling on D-branes in string theory is known to receive higher derivative corrections which couple the Ramond-Ramond potential to terms involving the square of the spacetime curvature tensor. Consistency with T-duality…
The geometric resonance of open orbits in unidirectional lateral superlattices has been examined with high magnetic-field resolution. Magnetoresistance oscillations periodic in 1/B, analogous to the well-known commensurability oscillations…
We discuss tree level three and four point scattering amplitudes in type II string models with matter fields localized at the intersections of D-brane wrapping cycles. Using conformal field theory techniques we calculate the four fermion…
